Description
Photograph was edited for publication purposes
Photograph article dated November 8, 1962 partially reads, "The least unusual thing about Treasure Island is its name, which fittingly describes a 10-acre parcel of land on the northern environs of Calabasas...If this land-locked island could be classified as any one thing without inventing new phrases, an outdoor market with a midway atmosphere might serve. Whatever it is, it's fast becoming a popular pastime for Valley families or for people happening by from Highway 101 or Las Virgenes Rd." Seen in photograph is Fritzie Albert, Reseda, a merchant at Treasure Island, as she waits on a customer.
